hmm good point ktsnake.
However, w/o VY, I think Ohio State wins it.
OK I will ammend my prediction slightly--some combo of Ohio State, Texas and Notre Dame.
I think ND will be better next year. 2nd year under Weiss and they return a lot of their key starters.
Penn state could be up there, but not sure who is and is not graduating/entering draft early there.
USC has a rebuilding year ahead and I predict we go either 10-2 or 9-3.
QB is not as much an issue (Booty and Sanchez are ready) but tailbacks ARE. Thank God 2/3 our OL returns.
